Interior, No. 136. The usefulness of the pattern shown in this sketch 
is readily apparent, supplying, as it does, material 
for a cut-out “head” ornament within panels, 
stole-drop decoration as shown in stairway treat- 
ment, or as pendant from ceilings. This classic 
border and ornament is made in one roll, and in its 
application resembles the soft coloring of a hand- 
brushed decoration.

and decorative talent.

Interior, No. 138. The sketch shows the use of a wainscot pattern 
that is also suitable for the decoration of an entire 
wall. The upper part is an inobtrusive . diaper 
pattern with binder taken from the dado pattern 
and used to finish the top and bottom. The 
proportion of lower and upper wall decoration 
can be adjusted to architectural conditions.

strongly-marked decorative units, to which are 
joined the two bands as extension. With these 
two factors a frieze treatment for any space may 
be produced and the bands can be used alone for 
panel treatments, as is in evidence in the body of 
the wall.

Interior, No. 142. 


In this interior the decoration used on the wainscot 
may be arranged in innumerable ways, with the 
extension, crown, and base as shown; or it could 
be cut apart as a nail-head binder for special 
paneling. The upper hanging perfects the deco- 
rative scheme and has been colored for use with 
the lower wall, thereby making a unique and inex- 
pensive dining-room or library treatment in a 
rich leather effect.

tones of silk and chintz and terminates in a very

This interior shows an entirely new idea in wall 
decoration, illustrating the use of two patterns 
designed to be used together as an upper and 
lower wall treatment. The proportion of the two 
parts is regulated by the height of the walls and 
offers an artistic and inexpensive method of reliev- 
ing a plain wall surface.

Interior, No. 149 Interior, No. 149. This combination has the merit of producing 

FILLER, 1650 panels of various widths, while still preserving the 
dignity of the panels. The cut-out wreaths and 
floral decorations enhance the softness of outline 
and relieve the room of all formality.

In the front room is shown The Briar Rose, a bed- 
room treatment for town or country house. A 
number of artistic arrangements can be made with 
the use of filling, stiling, and frieze. 

In the far room may be seen another illustration 
of the use of two patterns related so as to be hung 
conjunctively or independently.

DeEcoRATED LEATHER 
FOR FRIEZE, 8754 


Interior, No. 151. The illustration gives an unusually clear idea of 
how easily varying wall spaces may be decorated 
by expanding or contracting Birge Leather decora- 
tions. The panels shown are of different widths. 

The frieze gives still another decorative idea— 
a designed leather used to apparently reduce the 
height of a room.

PLain LEATHER, 8312 


Interior, No. 153. This illustration shows the use of a narrow leather 
band in relieving the severity of a solid leather 
wall. The Burmese medallions were cut from 
another Birge design, and appliqued on the frieze. 
They demonstrate the value of applique work to 
enhance the beauty of leather decorations.

Interior, No. 154. This interior is carried out in the spirit of the 


modern German work. The lower leather pattern 
is as appropriate for an upper wall as for the 
wainscot effect, whilst the upper leather would be 


equally appropriate for a wainscot or lower section 
of wall.

Interior, No. 155. The frieze and wall panel produced by the several 
parts of this decoration show but one of the many 
effects possible in their assemblage. 

As in Interior No. 140, a frieze or panel may be 
most readily extended or contracted through the 
frequent or infrequent use of the flower ornaments.

Interior, No.156. The method of producing this French decoration 
while apparently complicated is in reality very 
simple, since there are but three parts, easily con- 
ceived and applied. A most appropriate decora- 
tion for a reception room may be produced with 
this pattern contrasted with the quaint Colonial 
paper shown in the hall.

Interior, No. 157. The crown and hanging here shown carry the feel-

tion. The two parts lend themselves to various 
uses, as instanced in the simple effect shown in the 
frieze above as contrasted with the wall enrich- 
ment.

Interior, No. 158. This Italian interior shows one of the most direct 


uses of the pilaster and narrow border which com- 
prise this leather combination. The pilaster is so 
designed that it may be readily reduced or ex- 
panded by cutting out or inserting one or more of 
its decorative forms without injury to the conti- 
nuity of the design. The treatment above the 
mantel gives an illustration of this possibility. 
Plain hide is shown as the material within the panels.

Interior, No. 159. 


An old Venetian lantern furnished the suggestion 
for the leather decoration in the above illustration. 
The tooled leather border shown was made to 
harmonize with this “head” ornament. Effective 
panels may be produced, however, without this 
border, since the pendant chain forms panels in a 
somewhat unusual manner.

Birge Real Leathers. The above represent illustrations of Tooled and 
Hand-IIluminated Real Leathers. 

The mats and the narrow decorative bands are 
produced on limp leather and the large patterns, 
which are intended for wall decoration, screen 
panels, etc., are made on heavy leather. 

The narrow bands are especially appropriate for 
the enrichment of draperies, being extremely flexible 
and readily attached to upholstery materials.
